REFUELING THE VEHICLE
1. Push the fuel filler door release switch (lo-
cated under the headlamp switch).
2. Open the fuel filler door .
NOTE:
In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent
the fuel door from opening. If this occurs,
lightly push on the fuel door to break the ice
buildup and re-release the fuel door using
the inside release button. Do not pry on the
door.
3. There is no fuel filler cap. A flapper door
inside the pipe seals the system.
4. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe
– the nozzle opens and holds the flapper
door while refueling.
NOTE:
Only the correct size nozzle opens the
latches allowing the flapper door to open.
5. Fill the vehicle with fuel – when the fuel
nozzle “clicks” or shuts off the fuel tank is
full.
6. Wait five seconds before removing the fuel
nozzle to allow fuel to drain from nozzle.
7. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel
door.
Emergency Gas Can Refueling
• Most gas cans will not open the flapper door.
• A funnel is provided to open the flapper door
to allow emergency refueling with a gas can.
• Retrieve funnel from the spare tire storage
area.
• Insert funnel into same filler pipe opening as
the fuel nozzle.
